Luka Doncic (PG – DAL): $12,400 DraftKings, $12,400 FanDuel
It’s wild that Doncic wasn’t the MVP favorite this time last week because he’s been the most dominant player this season. His league-leading 38 percent usage rate is a significant reason for his success, leading all players with 64 DraftKings points per game. His most recent form is even more ridiculous, scoring at least 81 DraftKings points in four of his last five games. One of those came against the Rockets, who allow the most fantasy points to opposing point guards.
